Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup broccoli florets cut into even pieces
  • 2 cup cauliflower florets cut into even pieces, same size as broccoli
  • 2 cup carrots sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 1 medium red bell pepper chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 tbsp olive oil extra virgin recommended
  • 4 cloves garlic minced fresh
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper or to taste
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 0.25 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • Large baking sheet
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Chef's knife
  • Cutting board
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Allow it to fully preheat before adding vegetables.
  2. Wash and chop all vegetables into roughly equal-sized pieces for even cooking.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss all vegetables with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme until evenly coated.
  4. Spread vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet with space between each piece. Use two pans if needed to avoid crowding.
  5. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping once at the halfway mark around 12 to 15 minutes. Vegetables are done when edges are golden brown and broccoli tips are slightly crispy. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Never crowd the baking sheet or vegetables will steam instead of roast. Flip once halfway through for even caramelization. Leftovers keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes to restore crispiness. Excellent in grain bowls, omelets, or pasta the next day.
